Christmas is a date full of symbolism. Each element that goes into decoration during this period has its own meaning and is always very interesting to know. Today we are going to talk about a very popular one: the Christmas star.
Do you know what it stands for? The meaning of the Christmas star or Bethlehem star is directly related to the birth of Jesus. According to Christian tradition, a bright star in the sky announced the birth of the "king of the Jews" to the three wise men. Seeing her in the sky, the three men started to follow her until they reached the place where the boy had been born. There they presented him with myrrh, incense and gold.
So, therefore, the Christmas star symbolizes the "way forward", "the direction we should take". That is why it is so used during the holiday season, when people look for new paths and hope for a renewed life.
And what better way to put this symbol of renewal and hope in the decoration of the house during Christmas? Some prefer to use the star at the top of the Christmas tree, others at the entrance to the house, and there are still those who use the star in more unusual and creative places, such as on a hanging clothesline or in the shape of a mobile.
The fact is that the Christmas star cannot be left out of the decoration and wants to know one more thing? You can even make a beautiful Christmas star to decorate your home by spending very little, since most of the materials you probably have at home. Want to learn? So let's follow the tutorials below:
